In observance of Yom HaShoah - Holocaust Remembrance Day - Hope for Peace & Justice will present the play Bent, written by Martin Sherman and directed by Daniel Scott Cates.

Bent follows the story of Max, a homosexual on the run from the Nazis, who finds himself in Dachau, a prison camp. By developing a relationship with fellow prisoner, Horst, Max regains his self-respect. Bent is a harrowing, overpoweringly intense, and at times violent story about the treatment of homosexuals by their own countrymen before World War II.
